Dexman PE PMP
Internationally PMP'n his PE-ness
I have yet to get any cell reception on a commercial plane.
Did no one fly over and look at that possible wreckage that the Chinese aerial photo picked up?
Pakistan does have a habit of changing their mind and their story though...Pakistan said it didn't enter their airspace... Yeah we believe you!
Hopefully someone is getting chuck Norris' crew ready to roll...
It takes a pretty decent runway to operate that plane and I can't imagine anybody landing that thing somewhere without somebody seeing it.
Even empty, it would take at least 4000 ft of pavement to get it down and stopped. If the intent is to then fly it back out, they'll need upwards of 6000 ft.I think running on fumes, the thing would be pretty light and probably not take as much runway as you think, for landing. I could see Pakistan using it to do nefarious things to the Indians.
You may be trying to apply a little logic where none exists. If the pilot was cracked, who knows what the little voices inside his head were telling him to do.I just can't see someone going to all that effort to evade civvie radar just to crash it into the sea.
